MAC Golden Bronzing Powder
MAC To the Beach Collection – Golden & Refined Golden Bronzer Review, Photos, & Swatches
Here are both bronzers in their faux-glowing glory! Keep in mind that both of these shades are permanent and available all year ’round–just in typical black packaging.
- Golden is a lightened beige-tan with subtle gold shimmer. On my arm, which is around NC20, it barely shows up once it’s blended out. I think for our fairer friends, this could work as a subtle, no-fuss bronzer. For darker beauties, not so much.
- Refined Golden is a dirty brown with a very fine golden shimmer strewn through the powder that’s barely noticeable when used. I don’t find it turns orange-y at all, so I like it for a bronzing option. It’s dark enough to work on light to medium dark complexions, but it’s not so dark that it will look drastic on lighter skin tones.
